Besides from your grandmother's death and the love you both shared for each other, what else has inspired you to create Journey of the Spark?
That was one of the key pieces of inspiration that gave Journey of the Spark its emotional and philosophical center but the movie got its sense of adventure and dark tone from a lot of 80’s fantasy films like The Dark Crystal and Willow.
I wanted to give the movie a very Don Bluth-esque feeling, one that’s heartwarming one minute and then dark and horrifying the next. Movies that play around with emotional resonance are movies that I enjoy the most.

Will the Main Six have Major Roles other than Twilight Sparkle?
Most of the movie revolves around Twilight and Celestia as its a coming-of-age story for the both of them, but you find yourself spending as much time with the rest of the Mane 6 as you would the others.
So yes, they do have major roles!

How did you hire your animators to work with you?
Most of them applied through the application sheet. Others we scouted through YouTube and deviantART.
